Going against all of the theories about who would die, Infinity War kills off almost everyone EXCEPT for the original heroes, with Tony Stark, Steve Rogers et al the last heroes standing.

Not only that, but this paints Avengers 4 as their last stand. Many of the actors involved are coming to the ends of their contracts, and more so coming towards the ends of their arcs. Of course, Marvel could decide to tell more stories and convince them to sign new deals, but there's a clear way out here.

The idea of trading lives comes up in Infinity War, and while Vision rejects that notion, it's something that could well play out in Avengers 4, as we welcome back the dead heroes but at the expense of some of the originals, after one final journey for the characters who started it all.

What do you think will happen in Ant-Man and the Wasp, Captain Marvel & Avengers 4? Let us know down in the comments.
